BINGO WINNER HOMEWARD BOUND
19/12/2007

While few players would turn their noses up at a £45,000 UK bingo jackpot, one 73-year-old Motherwell bingoer was overcome with shock after a recent victory.

 

"I was in an awful stew when I was told how much I had won," she explains to the game's operating body.

 

"I was excited but shocked and I just wanted to get home," she reveals to National Bingo.

 

Her numbers came up in 43 calls, the fewest taken to achieve a full house by anyone in the country.

 

And the Gala Bingo Motherwell member expects to be having a great Christmas with the five-figure sum in her bank account.

 

She might not be the only one with reason to celebrate over the festive season, as a civil servant from Kirkcaldy also recently scooped the UK bingo jackpot.

 

The 62-year-old claimed £80,000 at Carlton Bingo in Dunfermline recently - and said she intends to bank the money before deciding how to spend it.
